It would be good to find out why those sources are trying to be reached. Those repos path do not exist, hence the 404 Not Found. For example, for Linux Lite 3.2 the correct path is not:

http://repo.linuxliteos.com/linuxlite/di...6/Packages

But:

http://repo.linuxliteos.com/linuxlite/di...6/Packages

Perhaps the quickest way to address the issue would be to use Lite Tweaks. First, check for updates from terminal and install any updates as you previously did.

Code:
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get upgrade

Then, open Lite Tweaks => Package System Repair (Restore the package management system to default).

Finally run "Install Updates" again. That should take care of the issue.

Hi ralphy, thanks for replying.

Just tried you suggestion and it still not working.
The first update turned up the same error as before. The upgrade  seems to have worked. installed 290mb approx.
Then i tried the Lite Tweaks and it came up with an error (see attached)

I also tried Lite Software and  i get another error message, saying to check var/logs/lite-software.log.
The problem is I do not have a lite-software.log file under var directory.... :-\

Was thinkig about adding http://repo.linuxliteos.com/linuxlite/di...6/Packages
in software&update under other software, and maybe un-tick  the xenial address?

But the add source button is greyed out... :-\

PS. how come that png screen shots are not allowed for upload?
